Dr Jekyll and the Werewolf

(1972 -- Spain) Paul Naschy, Jack Taylor, Mirta Miller, Shirley Corrigan. This is the fifth film to feature Spanish actor Paul Naschy as Waldemar the Wolfman. The previous episode – "Fury of The Wolfman" – had not been well received. Naschy was determined to get the series back on track and with his next appearance as the Wolfman he pulled out all the stops. Here, he comes to swinging seventies London, seeking a cure to his malady. Unfortunately he meets Dr Jekyll, who injects him with a serum that turns him into the lascivious killer, Mr Hyde. In his top hat and black cloak, Hyde haunts the fleshpots of Soho, while two gorgeous women fight for possession of his wolfman soul. Top grade Euro-horror and definitely the craziest werewolf film ever. Disc includes both the Spanish cut and the rarely seen export version of the film. Formats: Blu-ray. Extras: Paul Naschy on Dr Jekyl; Jack Taylor, "testigo del fantástico," directed by Diego López-Fernández; Jack Taylor on Fantaterror; film maker Victor Matellano on the career of director Leon Klimovsky; audio commentary from the Naschy cast. (Mondo Macabro).

Night Falls on Manhattan [Limited Edition]

(1996) In a career that includes Oscar-nominated masterpieces such as "Serpico", "Prince of the City" and "The Verdict," director Sidney Lumet has cross-examined the fine line between those who enforce the law and those who exploit it, both in the courtroom and on the streets. Adapting a novel by former NYPD officer Robert Daley ("Year of the Dragon"), Lumet once again exposes the corrupt underbelly of the city that never sleeps. Sean Casey (Andy Garcia) is an assistant district attorney and a rising star in the New York City legal system. He is forced into a tough position when his ambitious boss, seeking re-election, asks Sean to prosecute a drug dealer caught by two NYPD detectives under controversial circumstances - one of whom happens to be Sean's father (Ian Holm). As Sean gets closer to the truth in the case, what he uncovers may break his faith in the legal system, threaten his promising career and tear his family apart. Boasting a powerhouse supporting cast including Lena Olin, Richard Dreyfuss and James Gandolfini, this underrated entry in Lumet's canon of crime classics can be freshly reappraised with a new restoration and illuminating bonus features. Brand new 2K remaster from the original negative by Arrow Films. Formats: Blu-ray. Extras: Read more here. (Arrow Video/MVD Entertainment)

A Story of Floating Weeds / Floating Weeds: Two Films By Yasujiro Ozu

(1934/1959) In 1959, Yasujiro Ozu remade his 1934 silent classic "A Story of Floating Weeds" in color with celebrated cinematographer Kazuo Miyagawa. Setting his later version in a seaside location, Ozu otherwise preserves the details of his elegantly simple plot wherein an aging actor returns to a small town with his troupe and reunites with his former lover and their son, a scenario that enrages his current mistress and results in heartbreak for all. Together, the films offer a unique glimpse into the evolution of one of cinema's greatest directors. "A Story of Floating Weeds" finds Ozu in the midst of developing his mode of expression; "Floating Weeds" reveals his distinct style at its pinnacle. In each, the director captures the joy and sadness of everyday life. 4K digital master of "Floating Weeds," with uncompressed monaural soundtrack. Formats: Blu-ray. Extras: Read more here.

photo for Peeping Tom

Peeping Tom

(1960) Having brought British cinema into exalted realms of fantasy and imagination, Michael Powell took a dark detour into obsession, voyeurism, and violence with this groundbreaking metacinematic investigation into the mechanics of fear.

Crimson Peak [Limited Edition]

(2015) From the imagination of Oscar-winning director Guillermo del Toro ("Pan's Labyrinth," "The Shape of Water") comes "Crimson Peak," a lavish, stunningly realized journey into the dark heart of Gothic romance. Beginning in Buffalo, New York, during the 1880s, "Crimson Peak" stars Mia Wasikowska as Edith Cushing, an aspiring writer who is haunted by the death of her mother. Edith falls in love with seductive stranger Thomas Sharpe (Tom Hiddleston), who whisks her off to Allerdale Hall, his baronial, yet dilapidated English mansion built upon a mountain of blood-red clay. Here Edith meets Lucille (Jessica Chastain), Thomas's sister who at times seems hostile and jealous. As Edith struggles to feel at home in the imposing residence, she gradually uncovers a horrendous family secret and encounters supernatural forces that will help he discover the terrible truth behind Crimson Peak. Boasting incredibly intricate and ornate production design and a rich visual style, del Toro's film is a grandiose, boldly baroque triumph of Gothic decadence, which expertly combines and contrasts the sublimely beautiful with the shockingly grotesque. "Crimson Peak" is presented here in sumptuous special packaging, with a wealth of extra features, affording unprecedented insight into the making of this modern Gothic classic. 4K (2160p) Ultra HD Blu-ray presentation in Dolby Vision (HDR10 compatible), approved by director Guillermo del Toro.

Narc [Limited Edition]

(2002) A natural successor to the violent thrillers of the 70s, director Joe Carnahan's breakthrough "Narc" brings the genre screaming into a new era, setting the standard for the modern cop drama with its gritty, unrelenting tone and style. In wintry Detroit, narcotics cop Nick Tellis (Jason Patric) is recovering from an undercover operation gone wrong.

As both men become lost in the depths of the case, boundaries become blurred, and their relationship begins to vacillate between intensely personal and unsettlingly suspicious.

photo for THREE REVOLUTIONARY FILMS BY OUSMANE SEMBÈNE

Three Revolutionary Films By Ousmane Sembène

Having blazed a trail for African filmmakers to tell their own stories on-screen, Senegalese auteur Ousmane Sembène took his career-long project -- to unlock cinema’s potential as a vehicle for social change -- in increasingly urgent and provocative directions in the 1970s. Searing critiques of colonialism, political corruption, patriarchal arrogance, and religious indoctrination, his three features from this decade -- the radical call to resistance "Emitaï" (1971), the wickedly subversive satire "Xala" (1975), and the controversial historical epic "Ceddo" (1977) -- confirmed his standing as a fearless truth-teller for whom the camera was the ultimate weapon in the fight against oppression in all its forms. New 4K digital restorations of all three films, with uncompressed monaural soundtracks. Formats: DVD, Blu-ray. Extras: Read more here. (The Criterion Collection).

Anatomy of a Fall

(2023 -- France) The closer we look, the less we know in Justine Triet’s masterful Palme d’Or–winning film, an eerily riveting courtroom thriller that examines the line where truth becomes fiction and fiction becomes truth. When Sandra Voyter (a transfixing Sandra Hüller), a writer who turns the material of her life into autofiction, is put on trial for the suspicious death by defenestration -- or was it suicide? -- of her husband, it opens up an inquiry that will turn a troubled home inside out. Tapping into the minimalist intensity of a chamber drama -- and using intricate, elliptical editing -- Triet constructs a mystery that is ultimately less about a death than about the hidden lives we lead. Vitals: Director: Justine Triet. Stars: Sandra Hüller, Milo Machado Graner, Antoine Reinartz. CC, MPAA rating: R, 151 min., Drama Mystery, North American box office gross: $4.624 million, worldwide $28.375 million, The Criterion Collection. Formats: DVD, Blu-ray, VOD, Digital. Extras: New interview with director Justine Triet; deleted and alternate scenes; audition footage of actors Milo Machado Graner and Antoine Reinartz and rehearsal footage of Machado Graner and actor Sandra Hüller; trailer; an essay by critic Alexandra Schwartz. 3 stars Read more here.

Girlfight

(2000) Bullied by her father at home and feeling adrift at school, Diana Guzman (Michelle Rodriguez) finds refuge in an unexpected pocket of her native Brooklyn -- a timeworn boxing gym, where she learns to channel her strength, discovers a sense of community, and falls for a rival fighter. In Karyn Kusama’s raw, understated feature debut, Rodriguez commands the screen with both tightly coiled intensity and deep wells of vulnerability as a young woman hitting back at society’s expectations and her own personal demons. Capturing the full emotional weight of Diana’s journey and the kinetic thrill of bodies in motion, Kusama crafts a singularly uncompromising story of self-realization. Formats: Blu-ray, with new 4K digital restoration, supervised by director Karyn Kusama and director of photography Patrick Cady, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack. Extras: Read more here. (The Criterion Collection).
